Someone recently asked for a thread on the evidence of higher AE for vaccination of Covid survivors v naive recipients. EVERY study I am aware of so far is consistent with this finding. Please update or correct the list that follows.
Efrati nature.com/articles/s4159… "Short-term severe symptoms that required medical attention were found in 6.8% among the post-infected individuals, while none were found in the infection naïve population."
Menni ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/artic… "Systemic side-effects were more common (1·6 times after the first dose of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 and 2·9 times after the first dose of BNT162b2) among individuals with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection than among those without known past infection."
Mathioudakis ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/artic… "A prior COVID-19 infection was associated with an increased risk of any side effect.... It was also associated with an increased risk of severe side effects leading to hospital care."
Krammer "Vaccine recipients with preexisting immunity had systemic side effects at higher frequencies than those without preexisting immunity" nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
Raw ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/artic… "The proportion of participants reporting at least one moderate-to-severe symptom was higher in the previous COVID-19 group"
Tre-hardy "Common side effects such as articular pain, muscular pain, headache, fatigue, fever, adenopathy and oedema from the first dose appear to be more frequent and severe in previously infected individuals" ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/artic…
Here's a list of all the studies I've identified that find NO elevated risk of AE for vax of Covid survivors. 
Takeaway: Shenai, et al find trivial, temporary reduction in risk of any infection (usually mild) from vax of previously infected (NNT=218). In exchange, Covid survivors get highly elevated risk of AE, including serious (including hospitalization and ER). ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/artic…
